Atlético de Madrid take on Las Palmas after midweek win.
As Atlético Madrid aim to bounce back in La Liga against Las Palmas after a Copa del Rey triumph, their formidable home record against the visitors and Las Palmas' newfound confidence set the stage for an intriguing clash at the Wanda Metropolitano.
Atlético Madrid
Atletico Madrid recently secured a 2-0 victory over Vic in the Copa del Rey. However, they have been struggling to find their best form in the league, despite a summer spending spree that exceeded €175 million.
A costly own goal by José María Giménez early on led to consecutive defeats across all competitions last weekend. This marked their first La Liga loss of the season, leaving a disappointed Diego Simeone to acknowledge his side's struggles, although he praised Betis for being exceptional.
Atletico's inconsistent form has seen them drop points in three of their last six La Liga home games. Meanwhile, they have been dominant against Las Palmas at home, remaining unbeaten in their last 20 encounters.
Despite recent challenges, Atletico are keen to secure their 10th win out of 11 matches against Las Palmas, having achieved nine victories in their last ten meetings, and maintaining a shutout in eight of those games. Julián Alvarez, a summer signing, may partner with Antoine Griezmann in a 4-4-2 setup for this match.
However, they will be missing the services of Pablo Barrios and Clément Lenglet, both of whom are ruled out of this fixture.
Las Palmas
Las Palmas will arrive at the Wanda Metropolitano with renewed confidence after back-to-back La Liga victories. Thursday's 7-0 Copa del Rey win over Ontiñena CF has added another dimension to their newfound form, with Jaime Mata scoring a remarkable four goals in that match.
In La Liga, their recent form includes a 1-0 win over Girona last weekend, courtesy of a late first-half goal from Alex Muñoz. Despite this improvement, Las Palmas sit in 18th place, just one point shy of safety.
However, their away form against Madrid-based teams has been troubling, as they have only secured one win in their last 56 visits [1W, 14D, 41L], with that solitary victory coming against Rayo Vallecano earlier this year. Manager Diego Martínez is expected to deploy a 4-5-1 formation, with Fábio Silva leading the attack.
The team will be missing Adnan Januzaj and Enzo Loiodice due to injuries for this encounter.
